Pitchfork

Hip-swinging, polka-dotted British girl group the Pipettes have pi-prepped a new single from their debut album We Are the Pipettes on Memphis Industries. "Judy", which follows the UK Top 40 hit "Pull Shapes", arrives on September 25. Like the Pipettes themselves, it comes in three spiffy formats. (However, I highly doubt that the women of the Pipettes are singles! Just sayin'.)

CD:

01 Judy
02 Simon Says

White Vinyl:

A Judy
B Feminist Complaints

Blue Vinyl:

A Judy
B The Burning Ambition of Early Diuretics (Monster Bobby cover)

The Pipettes shimmy their way through the UK and Europe this August and September, making stops at various festivals, including Pukkelpop, Get Loaded in the Park, and the Bestival Festival. (Those Brits sure know how to name 'em!) Alas, no North American dates have been scheduled.
